Great visit
Very professional and very personable. A very caring doctor we love him.
Excellent bedside manner, professional and a good man.
Fantastic helpful staff, efficient processes, gave me a real sense of being in both highly competent and very pragmatic hands. Couldn't have gone better.
A Doctor who listens, and cares for the patient needs.
Always takes time to talk with my 85 yr old mom to understand her issues.
Great Doc! Had an early appointment and was seen very promptly. Can’t say enough about my experience with Dr. Parks.
Great experience in ⁶is
Dr Parks answered all my questions and feel confident I'm in very good hands
Dr. Parks is an amazing physician! He is a true professional, kind, and caring. He did my knee replacement and I am very pleased with the results. Having the ability to now climb stairs again with no pain in that knee was so worth having the surgery. I highly recommend him!
